You can never start teaching proper starting line acceleration too young

Remember that sweet-looking Mario Kart ride-on we reported was coming to the UK later this year? Turns out Toys 'R Us customers in the United States can already put money down on the same set of wheels.

Pre-orders for the Super Mario Kart Ride-on are currently open at the Toys 'R Us website. The 6V machine will set you back $199.99, but just think: that's only 0.05% the cost of a 2014 Lamborghini Aventador and you're going to look just as cool in it! *

Of course, odds are you probably still can't fit into the ride-on, as it's intended for kids weighing 70 pounds or less. Lucky children. Toys 'R Us is expecting to roll shipments of the cart out beginning 7th March.
